The Range of Motion Foundation is a non-profit, 501(C)3 charitable organization. Tax ID #83-3047596.

ROMF is an educational foundation that was founded in Los Angeles California to support the high school athletic department in providing sports medicine services to their athletes. Over the years, there have been an increased number of young athletes who have sustained injuries but continue to play without proper evaluation or care. The Range of Motion Foundation via The Athlete Initiative program will bring Board Certified Sports Chiropractic Physicians to provide detailed evaluations, assessments and treatment for musculoskeletal and concussion injuries. The Athlete Initiative program will also design rehabilitation and injury prevention protocol to promote athlete performance and reduce the possibility of further injury.

This program will focus on but not limited to: excellent spinal injury prevention, sport trauma management, therapy, athletic health maintenance, and exceptional injury recovery. Performance optimization of the athlete’s musculoskeletal and nervous systems will also be addressed through strength and conditioning exercises. ROMF encourages a multi-disciplinary sports care environment that includes medical doctors, physical therapists, certified athletic trainers and others, which has proven to be the most beneficial for the athlete.

Many high school athletic departments are under staffed and need support to provide an opportunity for these students to continue to participate in sports. This program is designed to assist the department at no cost to the students or high school.
